Wish I Were Only Lonely lyrics

When you ain't got nobody Then nobody ever says goodbye You don't have to wait for someone To make you laugh or make you cry Wish I were only lonely Just kind of ordinary blue If I were only lonely Then maybe I'd know what to do But I'm helpless 'cause I'm lonely for you I sleep in a bed so empty It's an emptiness no one can fill I may have to go on living But life without you ain't no thrill Well, whoever said it's better To love and to lose He ought to be right here in my shoes
